1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Since molecular typing method of enterovirus was introduced, many new types have been discovered. However, due to the low epidemic potential, the information on newer enteroviruses remains limited globally. This study aims to investigate the diversity and phylogeny of newer enterovirus types through environmental surveillance utilizing next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. Sixty-six wastewater samples were collected from two cities in eastern China between 2019 and 2021 and concentrated 100-fold using a negatively charged membrane method. After cell culture, 388 enterovirus isolates representing 14 serotypes were recovered, including Sabin-like poliovirus type 1 (n = 22) and type 3 (n = 57). Concurrently, RNA extraction was performed on all 66 sewage concentrates, and VP1 semi-nested RT-PCR yielded 56 amplicons, which were subsequently subjected to NGS. The NGS analysis identified a total of 33 serotypes, with echovirus 11, coxsackievirus A10, echovirus 18, coxsackievirus B4, and coxsackievirus B5 being the most prevalent, accounting for 29.11%, 9.87%, 8.27%, 8.14%, and 6.10% of the total reads, respectively. Newer identified enterovirus types A76, A89, A90, and C113 were detected in 1 (1.52%), 17 (25.76%), 5 (7.58%), and 6 (9.09%) sewage samples, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on the partial VP1 coding region indicated that these local enteroviruses formed distinct lineages separate from previously identified strains. These findings demonstrate that sewage contains enteroviruses with considerable diversity. NGS-based sewage surveillance offers a significant advantage in data output compared to the cell culture method and can be effectively utilized for monitoring newer enterovirus strains.
